I'll give Sam credit for one thing. He was really specific about what he didn't want happening as far as the time travelling thing. 'Under no circumstances' and 'I don't give a damn if' and 'I swear Arianna, if you ever try' and stuff like that was used a lot. He said the same things to Madsen, except I'm pretty sure he was nicer about it

"... Hello."What do we have e're? Either Hare's been settin' us up in some bloody new kind of trap, or this woman I'm starin' at is the most peculiar female I ever laid my eyes on. Quite a looker by any standards, but when they come atcha through a colored haze out o' nothin', you may be pressin' your luck when you greet her in return before gettin' the questions of o' the way

Oh... my... God, is he pretty. What... they make men this great looking this far back? He looks like Orlando Bloom! This is... This is great. Aside from the gun in my face, this is wonderful. I don't think he's going to shoot me until I do something wrong anyway.

Alright, well, more wrong than walking out of a time portal.

Alright, this is definitely Joe Byrne. Incredibly pretty. I wonder how bad it would be to lose my virginity to a historical figure. Sam would pitch a fit, but that's Sam's thing, so...

Focus, Arianna. He's asked you questions, you're supposed to answer them.

Just... Oh my God.

"A name would also be as lovely as your appearance, though we'd be more 'an happy to go first, miss. Seems as though you don't know what you've gotten yourself into."Well, that might be true... He called me lovely... Focus

"Don't argue with me Dan, just get yourself settled. We'll be here for the night." I rolled me eyes and looked around at the valley we'd stopped in. Seems safe enough to stay for a bit, a night's rest if nothin' else. Then we'll be movin' on elsewhere, to the next town

"Okay, first off, my name is Arianna. And I did that by magic."

I see I've been wrong. A witch she is, after all. If only they all looked like that, I'd say we'd all have less fear.

"Not a bad kind. I'm not here to hurt anyone. I promise."

"And what makes you think I'll be takin' your word for it?"

I kept me eyes on her carefully, though I can't say as though I minded. She's not to be trusted til' she tells me more 'bout herself. I can't have her runnin' round here with the type of mischief she has it in her to raise, 'specially not now that I've seen it with me own eyes.

"And if you're Joe Byrne, I'm here to meet you. And your friends."Wonder if that's her recognizin' me from the posters. I'm thinkin' she'd best clear out of here before the rest of them find her. They'd not take lightly a smart witch who knows us. Maybe Ned'd understand, but at best he'd be sendin' her on her way, n' who knows where she's come from

[chaotic_slayer]

"Alright. Let's go then."

I win. They're going. I won't have to have done all this for nothing. I get to take home Joe two members of the Kelly Gang. The real thing

[shoot__first]

That was definitely the weirdest ride I've ever been on. All that spinning and... And now I'm here. And Joe's next to me, and on the other side is that Arianna girl. And this is even more weird, because I feel different. Like myself, but... not like myself.

I mean, even my voice inside my own head doesn't sound like... what the hell happened to me?! My clothes are different! And I saw myself in something... a mirror? How do I know what that is? Either way, I look different too.

And where the hell is my gun? I'm not even armed! This is.. This is weird.

"Welcome to the future."

"Thanks." I muttered, and then looked over at Joe. Joe looks different too. Not bad, I guess. We don't look bad, it's just... It's new. Very new. And strange. And... Well I'm still Ned Kelly, no matter where I am. I guess it's alright. Just...

"To be honest, I don't know why you look more modern, I think that's an effect of the portal and the time travel and all that."I guess so." I still sound like an Irishman, I'm thankful for that. I wouldn't want to

[afriendlyoutlaw]

"Welcome to the future."

'Ello lovely modern world!

This is...this...bloody remarkable is what it is. The--this, this isn't a house, from what I'm seein' before me. And its not a house we'd ever be livin' to see otherwise, but its...its somethin' incredible that we were asked to witness. Time travelin' to the future. They'd not believe us if I swore on me life that this is the truth.

"Thanks."

I examined me clothes, lovin' how much lighter they were than the ones back at home. And more durable. Not fallin' apart at the seams from wearin' em a week at a time.

"To be honest, I don't know why you look more modern, I think that's an effect of the portal and the time travel and all that.

"I guess so."

"Marvellous." I grinned, lookin' around the room. I found the fanciest chair I'd ever laid me eyes on and sat in it, gettin' quickly comfortable from all the padding in it.

"But uh... Well, I'm going to have to take you somewhere before I can do anything else right now. Not anyplace bad, you're just going to have to go see my

[chaotic_slayer]

"... Sure. Yeah."

Alright, I think Ned's going to be alright. He's still getting used to the new him, but he's not freaking out badly, so I think we're okay.

And Joe looks cutely amused with everything. It's adorable. I wish I could keep him around. Maybe Sam and Carly will let him stay with me, and they can keep Ned. That'd be perfect.

"No time like the...present."

He's just wonderful.

"Exactly." I smiled and opened the door for them, grabbing my keys so I didn't forget to lock it. I really don't feel like being robbed. And yes, I do know the irony here, having two outlaws around and worrying about being robbed.

But I really don't think they're going to steal from me if I'm taking care of them, they're not the type. Luckily.

Alright, let's do this.
